About No Nonsense Catholic

Good information about the Catholic faith is more readily available today than ever before. Yet, there is still widespread confusion about Catholic belief and practice. Officially, it is the job of the Catholic bishops to clear up such confusion. But in the current reality, lay Catholics need to take it upon themselves to know, share, and defend their faith.Every week Catholic author and speaker Matthew Arnold gives clear and simple witness to the Catholic Faith without obscuring, complicating, or watering down the exclusive claims of Christ and His Church.Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ said, “I am the way and the truth and the life… and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free” (John 14.6; 8.32). And that is no nonsense.

   Why Christians Should “Indulge” Themselves NNC Podcast 22 09.19.2025

   Needless to say, Indulgences have often been misunderstood and just as often willfully misrepresented – yet their roots are both ancient and biblical. The Church’s teaching clearly shows that indulgences are not the “sale of salvation” but a legitimate exercise of ecclesial authority, grounded in Holy Scripture and in the apostolic tradition, and developed through centuries of pastoral practice. https://youtu.be/H2mgd-exDu8

   Yes Virginia, There is a Purgatory! NNC Podcast 21 08.20.2025

   https://youtu.be/boIY9jk6hOE Christians generally agree that after death we will face judgment, and consequently spend eternity with God in HEAVEN, or eternally SEPARATED from him in hell. But while faithful Christians (Protestant and Catholic alike) take heaven and hell as given, the question arises: what about purgatory? Where is purgatory in the Bible? Does the Catholic Church still teach purgatory or did that “go out with Vatican II?”

   Why Should I Defend My Faith? NNC Podcast 20 08.01.2025

   https://youtu.be/fS8utSbfRFE The practice of Biblical apologetics is vital for Catholics in defending and sharing the Faith. But even more fundamentally, Biblical apologetics is essential for keeping the Faith. A deeper, Biblical understanding of Catholicism not only fosters spiritual growth but builds up resilience against doubts and challenges.
